Terrific event hosted by the Monash Women’s Business Network today. We heard from Professor Elizabeth Croft on what we can do to encourage more women to seek careers in STEM and how simple steps such as changing language used can make all the difference.
Parents vs kids at Auskick this morning. Parents won - woohoo!
As someone that works full-time and is a Councillor in his “spare time”, today is a great day. A very rare day, but a great day.
Immunisations!

They shall grow not old
So today April turned six. After a massive day of celebrations, I asked her to put her jammies on.
Twelve months ago today, in the midst of a COVID-19 lockdown, four Police officers lost their lives in the line of duty.
** CHANGES TO LOCAL ANZAC DAY SERVICES **
Congratulations to our newest citizens

Annual homemade raspberry jam cooking day 😍
Check out the brand new Caloola Reserve Pavilion which opened yesterday!
Stoked to be able to meet our new citizens in person for the first time in more than twelve months. These events are always so special, but in light of being unable to meet face to face, they’ve taken on an even greater importance.
My girls 😍😍
What rain? We’re underway at Live at Warrawee!
On this day, 200 years ago, Greece achieved independence from the Ottoman Empire in a bloody battle that lasted more than 8 and a half years.

As we’ve come out of the COVID-19 lock-downs we’ve seen, now more than ever, how important outdoor dining has become. As a father of three girls, and with another child on the way, I have avoided some popular eating areas area due to the amount of passive smoke that my children have been exposed to.
The State Government introduced new laws in 2017 to curb smoking at outdoor dining venues. Council is proposing to introduce new outdoor dining permit conditions, and Local Laws, to ensure the intent of this law is upheld. It has always been Council’s strongly stated view that the use of public land for outdoor dining is for just that, outdoor dining. Anyone that has frequented Eaton Mall (as an example) since the new State laws were introduced, will be well aware that our outdoor dining areas have been instead used to serve “snacks” or “drinks”, thus allowing smoking to occur.
In December 2020, Council resolved to update our Footpath Trading and Access Policy to require that food be made available at all times on any public land made available for outdoor dining. For the avoidance of doubt, this change would have the effect of requiring all outdoor public dining areas to be smoke free.
Council’s intent is for the new changes to come in to affect on the 1st of July, 2021.
I, for one, cannot wait for this change to occur – and despite some people who will inevitably be unhappy with the change, I know that the overwhelming majority of our community will share my sentiments.
Although feedback for this change has technically closed, you are welcome to reach out to Councillors to express your views. Councillors contact details can be found by Googling “Monash Councillors”

as we that are left grow old;
Age shall not weary them,
nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning
We will remember them.
Well done @oakleighcarnegierslbistro on a fantastic service adhering to COVID protocols

Her response?
“Daddy I hope you bought me 6yo jammies”

At that time, with the community unable to pay their respects in the normal fashion, the significance of the sacrifice our Police make to keep our community safe was even more pronounced.
Tonight we light up the Civic Centre to pay tribute to Leading Senior Constable Lynette Taylor, Senior Constable Kevin King, Constable Josh Prestney and Constable Glen Humphris.

Melbourne is home to the largest Greek community outside of Greece itself and, of course, Oakleigh and Eaton Mall are considered the epicentre of the community.

Happy Independence Day!
